Opfindelsens områdeFIELD OF THE INVENTION

Den foreliggende opfindelse angår en fremgangsmåde til montering af et gulvafløb, hvor afløbet placeres på sin plads, før der støbes gulv, og hvor gulvafløbet fastgøres til en sidevæg i et rum, hvor afløbet placeres for at være fastholdt under støbningen af 10 gulvet.The present invention relates to a method of mounting a floor drain where the drain is placed in place before flooring and where the floor drain is attached to a side wall of a room where the drain is positioned to be held during the molding of the floor.

Opfindelsen angår endvidere en byggestruktur, der består af en sidevæg, et gulv, et gulvafløb og et montagebeslag fastgjort til sidevæggen og gulvafløbet.The invention further relates to a building structure consisting of a side wall, a floor, a floor drain and a mounting bracket attached to the side wall and the floor drain.

15 Opfindelsensb aggrundBACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

Det er almindeligt kendt at montere gulvafløb i deres korrekte position forud for støbningen af et gulv. Herved vil gulvafløbet blive støbt ind i gulvet. Det er imidlertid nødvendigt at sikre, at gulvafløbet ikke forskydes under støbningen, da dette kan få uheldig indflydelse på virkemåden for gulvafløbet og også kan vanskeliggøre en efter-20 følgende faststøbning af en membran til gulvafløbet.It is generally known to install floor drains in their correct position prior to casting a floor. In this way, the floor drain will be molded into the floor. However, it is necessary to ensure that the floor drain is not displaced during the casting, as this can adversely affect the operation of the floor drain and may also impede subsequent casting of a membrane to the floor drain.

I forbindelse med støbte gulve er det kendt, at gulvafløb støbes fast eller fastgøres ved anvendelse af forskellige typer ankerorganer, der forbinder afløbsskålen med omkringliggende bygningsdele. Dette er vanskeligt og kræver almindeligvis anvendelse 25 af separate ankerorganer.In connection with molded floors, it is known that floor drains are molded or secured using different types of anchor means connecting the drain bowl to surrounding building parts. This is difficult and generally requires the use of separate anchor means.

Således er det kendt, at man med henblik på at kunne etablere en vandtæt forbindelse imellem et gulvafløb i eksempelvis et badeværelse eller andet vådrum og en bygningsmembran, forsyner afløbsskålen af et gulvafløb med en membranflange, der er 30 beregnet til at forbindes med bygningsmembranen. Det er vigtigt, at der her tilvejebringes en korrekt forbindelse.Thus, in order to be able to establish a waterproof connection between a floor drain in, for example, a bathroom or other wet room and a building membrane, the drain bowl of a floor drain is provided with a membrane flange intended to be connected to the building membrane. It is important that a proper connection is provided here.

DK 176269 B2 2DK 176269 B2 2

For at sikre dette kendes der gulvafløb, hvor afløbsskålen er forsynet med en eller flere ombukkede montageflanger, der benyttes for fastgørelse til en tilstødende væg.To ensure this, floor drains are known in which the drain bowl is provided with one or more folded mounting flanges, which are used for attachment to an adjacent wall.

Dette er ufordelagtigt, da disse kendte montageflanger skal placeres helt ude ved gulvafløbets kantområde, og derfor i visse situationer kan have svært ved at optage de 5 kræfter, der påvirker afløbsskålen understøbning og evt. vibration af gulvet.This is disadvantageous as these known mounting flanges must be placed completely at the edge of the floor drain, and therefore in some situations may have difficulty absorbing the 5 forces that affect the drain bowl underpinning and possibly. vibration of the floor.

Endvidere vil denne løsning kun kunne anvendes til gulvafløb, der er placeret direkte op til en væg. Det giver således ikke brugeren frihed til kunne vælge en placering i afstand fra væggen.Furthermore, this solution can only be used for floor drains located directly up to a wall. Thus, it does not give the user the freedom to choose a location away from the wall.

1010

Den kendte løsning er endvidere ufordelagtig ved, at der via gulvafløbet er etableret en fast forbindelse mellem gulvet og en eller flere vægge. Det er uhensigtsmæssigt at have gulv og vægge forbundet, da det kan give problemer når et hus sætter sig eller når vægge og gulv arbejder i forhold til hinanden. Det er således generelt ønskeligt at 15 undgå en fast forbindelse mellem gulv og vægge.Furthermore, the known solution is disadvantageous in that a fixed connection is established between the floor and one or more walls via the floor drain. It is inappropriate to have floors and walls connected as it can cause problems when a house sits down or when walls and floors work in relation to each other. Thus, it is generally desirable to avoid a fixed floor-to-wall connection.

Opfindelsens formålThe object of the invention

Det er formålet med den foreliggende opfindelse at anvise en fremgangsmåde og en bygge struktur, der består af en sidevæg, et gulv, et gulvafløb og et montagebeslag 20 fastgjort til sidevæggen og gulvafløbet, og hvor man har undgået ovennævnte ulemper.It is the object of the present invention to provide a method and a building structure consisting of a sidewall, floor, floor drain and mounting bracket 20 attached to the sidewall and floor drain and avoiding the above disadvantages.

Beskrivelse af opfindelsenDescription of the Invention

Dette opnås ifølge den foreliggende opfindelse med en fremgangsmåde, der er sær-25 præget ved, at gulvafløbet forud for støbning af gulvet fastgøres til væggen ved hjælp af aftagelige montagebeslag, og at montagebeslagene afmonteres efter gulvet er støbt og hærdet.This is achieved in accordance with the present invention with a method characterized in that the floor drain prior to molding of the floor is secured to the wall by removable mounting brackets and that the mounting brackets are removed after the floor is molded and cured.

Byggestrukturen ifølge opfindelsen er særpræget ved, at montagebeslaget omfatter en 30 central understøtningsdel, der ved hver ende har en anlægsflade for anlæg mod væggen og en flade på gulvafløbet, at hver anlægsflade er forsynet med åbninger for mod- DK 176269 B2 3 tagelse af et udløseligt fastgørelse sorgan, der er indrettet for at samvirke med modsvarende fastgørelsesorganer i væggen og gulvafløbet.The building structure according to the invention is characterized in that the mounting bracket comprises a central support part having at each end a contact surface for abutment against the wall and a surface on the floor drain, that each abutment surface is provided with openings for receiving a releasable fastener means adapted to cooperate with corresponding fasteners in the wall and floor drain.

Det bliver herved muligt at adskille montage be slaget fra gulvafløbet og fra væggen 5 efter et gulv er støbt og er hærdet. Således vil gulvafløbet ikke udgøre en fast forbindelse mellem væggen og gulvet. Endvidere vil det være muligt at placere gulvafløbet i afstand fra væggen. Da det er muligt at fremstille montage be slaget med en hvilken som helst ønsket form, er det muligt at placere beslaget i en ønsket position i gulvet.This makes it possible to separate the mounting bracket from the floor drain and from the wall 5 after a floor is molded and hardened. Thus, the floor drain will not constitute a fixed connection between the wall and the floor. Furthermore, it will be possible to place the floor drain away from the wall. Since it is possible to make the mounting bracket with any desired shape, it is possible to place the bracket in a desired position in the floor.

Tillige vil afstanden fra en væg kunne vælges frit.Also, the distance from a wall can be freely chosen.

1010

Montage be slaget kan således benyttes til enhver form for gulvafløb uanset om de er aflange rektangulære, trekantede eller runde og uanset om de er beregnet til at blive placeret langs en væg, i et hjørne eller inde i et rum i afstand fra væg/hjøme.The mounting bracket can thus be used for any type of floor drain, whether elongated rectangular, triangular or round and whether it is intended to be placed along a wall, in a corner or inside a room away from the wall / corner.

15 Ifølge en yderligere udføreisesform er fremgangsmåden ifølge opfindelsen særpræget ved, at der til hvert montagebeslag på gulvafløbet monteres en eller flere gevindbøs-ninger i gulvafløbet, at montagebeslaget fastskrues i gevindbøsningeme og fastskrues til væggen. Fastskruning er en hensigtsmæssig måde til etablering af montering og demontering men andre fastgørelsesorganer kan også anvendes, når blot det er muligt 20 at afmontere disse på let måde efter gulvet er støbt. I gulvafløbet vil gevindbøsninger, der er fastgjort i afløbsskålen kunne strække sig ud fra afløbsskålen og derved kunne virke som ankerorganer, der forbinder afløbsskålen med omkringliggende bygningsdele. Når gevindbøsningeme er placeret på ydersiden af afløbsskålen vil de ikke påvirke den indre opbygning. Sådanne gevindbøsninger kan derimod tjene et dobbelt 25 formål, idet de evt. også kan anvendes til fastgørelse af riste eller andre elementer i afløbsskålen.According to a further embodiment, the method according to the invention is characterized in that for each mounting bracket on the floor drain one or more threaded bushings are mounted in the floor drain, that the mounting bracket is screwed into the threaded bushes and screwed to the wall. Screw fastening is a convenient way of establishing mounting and disassembly, but other fastening means can also be used when it is possible to remove them easily after the floor is molded. In the floor drain, threaded bushes attached to the drain bowl may extend from the drain bowl and thereby act as anchor means connecting the drain bowl to surrounding building members. When the threaded bushes are located on the outside of the drain bowl, they will not affect the internal structure. Such threaded bushes, on the other hand, can serve a dual purpose, as they may. can also be used for attaching grates or other elements in the drain bowl.

Ifølge en yderligere udførelsesform er fremgangsmåden ifølge opfindelsen særpræget ved, at der til gevindbøsninger anvendes popnitter. Popnitter er meget enkle at monte-30 re i afløbsskåle, der er fremstillet af plade, for eksempel rustfri stålplade. Endvidere kan de være udformet med et gevind, så de er klar til at samvirke med en skrue uden behov for yderligere bearbejdning.According to a further embodiment, the method of the invention is characterized in that pop rivets are used for threaded bushings. Pop rivets are very easy to mount in drain bowls made of plate, for example stainless steel plate. Furthermore, they can be designed with a thread so that they are ready to cooperate with a screw without the need for further machining.

DK 176269 B2 4DK 176269 B2 4

Ifølge en yderligere udførelsesform er fremgangsmåden ifølge opfindelsen særpræget ved, at montagebeslaget omfatter aflange åbninger til modtagelse af skruer for fastgørelse til væggen og gulvafløbet. Herved bliver det muligt at foretage en justering af gulvafløbets position, uanset at der optræder mindre skævheder i væggene. Det bliver 5 således muligt på sikker måde at positionere afløbet, så der kommer korrekt fald i selve afløbet, og således at det placeres korrekt i forhold til det omgivende gulv, hvori det er indstøbt.According to a further embodiment, the method according to the invention is characterized in that the mounting bracket comprises elongated openings for receiving screws for fixing to the wall and the floor drain. This makes it possible to adjust the position of the floor drain, regardless of the slight distortion in the walls. Thus, it becomes possible to safely position the drain so that there is a correct drop in the drain itself and so that it is placed correctly in relation to the surrounding floor in which it is embedded.

Ifølge en yderligere udførelsesform er fremgangsmåden ifølge opfindelsen særpræget 10 ved, at montagebeslaget fastgøres indeni gulvafløbet og fortrinsvis i bunden af gulvaf løbet. Herved vil der ikke være dele af montagebeslaget, som kan vanskeliggøre en korrekt støbning. Efter støbning af gulvet er klar, er det let at fa adgang til det indre af afløbsskålen, og derfor vil det være let at afmontere montagebeslaget.According to a further embodiment, the method according to the invention is characterized in that the mounting bracket is fixed inside the floor drain and preferably at the bottom of the floor drain. Thereby, there will be no parts of the mounting bracket which can make it difficult to cast correctly. After molding of the floor is ready, it is easy to access the interior of the drain bowl and therefore it will be easy to remove the mounting bracket.

15 Ifølge en yderligere udførelsesform er byggestrukturen ifølge opfindelsen særpræget ved, at montagebeslaget er fremstillet af en plade med ombukkede endedele ved enderne af en central pladeformet understøtningsdel. Et sådan pladeformet beslag er meget enkelt af fremstille. Det kan ske ved bukning af endedelene og udstansning af nødvendige huller for modtagelse af skruer, nitter eller lignende.According to a further embodiment, the building structure according to the invention is characterized in that the mounting bracket is made of a plate with folded end parts at the ends of a central plate-shaped support part. Such a plate-shaped bracket is very simple to manufacture. This can be done by bending the end portions and punching out necessary holes for receiving screws, rivets or the like.

Ifølge en yderligere udførelsesform er byggestrukturen ifølge opfindelsen særpræget ved, at anlægsflademe er placeret under en vinkel på 90° i forhold til den centrale understøtningsdel. Derved vil beslagene være enkle at anvende til afløbsskåle, hvor beslaget fastgøres til en plan bund og til en lodret væg. Alternativt kan der også anven- 25 des beslag, hvor endedelene er placeret under en anden vinkel. Det kan for eksempel være fordelagtigt ved montering af gulvafløb i et hjørne, og hvor det kan være nemmere at skrue beslaget fast, hvis den centrale understøtningsdel danner en større vinkel med endedelene, hvor skruerne passerer gennem åbningerne 30 Ifølge en yderligere udførelsesform er byggestrukturen ifølge opfindelsen særpræget ved, at montagebeslaget er forsynet med aflange åbninger i anlægsflademe for justerbar modtagelse af skruer, der skrues ind i væggen og ind i gevindbøsninger i gulvaflø- DK 176269 B2 5 bet. Dette giver en fleksibel montage og sikrer en korrekt positionering, uanset om der er skævheder i byggeriet.According to a further embodiment, the building structure according to the invention is characterized in that the abutment surfaces are placed at an angle of 90 ° to the central support part. Thereby, the brackets will be easy to use for drain bowls, where the bracket is attached to a flat bottom and to a vertical wall. Alternatively, fittings may also be used where the end portions are located at a different angle. For example, it may be advantageous to install floor drains in a corner and where it may be easier to screw the bracket if the central support member forms a larger angle with the end portions where the screws pass through the openings 30. According to a further embodiment, the building structure according to the invention is The feature is characterized in that the mounting bracket is provided with elongated openings in the abutment surfaces for adjustable reception of screws which are screwed into the wall and into threaded bushings in the floor drain. This allows for flexible mounting and ensures correct positioning, regardless of the construction defects.

Ifølge en yderligere udførelsesform er byggestrukturen ifølge opfindelsen særpræget 5 ved, at montagebeslaget omfatter skruer, der samvirker med gevindforsynede popnitter i gulvafløbet og skruehuller eller rawlplugs i væggen. Herved opnås en enkel konstruktion og det er eventuelt muligt at anvende samme type skruer til montage i væggen og i popnitterne.According to a further embodiment, the building structure according to the invention is distinctive in that the mounting bracket comprises screws which cooperate with threaded pop rivets in the floor drain and screw holes or hollow plugs in the wall. This results in a simple construction and it is possible to use the same type of screws for wall mounting and pop rivets.
